In the reference room, several tables were already filled with a large number of scattered documents and scrolls.

But these collected data are not all. The literature handed down from ancient times, although not as numerous as the existing literature, but accumulated, there are also quite a few.

The ground next to some tables is almost full of space, and there is not much room for standing.

"Hey, Shikamaru, is it okay for us to stay in this kind of place from now on? For example, take the initiative to attack or something..."

Naruto, who was assigned to work in the reference room, looked at the mountain of data files with a sad face, and suddenly an emotion called pain surged into his brain, making his brain start to become dizzy.

"Yeah, this is also a part of the next mission. And take the initiative to attack or something, don't think about it for the time being. The enemy is a powerful ninja who can defeat Jiraiysama. If you don't do the intelligence work in advance, it may be dangerous to attack rashly." Sacrifice more comrades."

Shikamaru said patiently.

His eyes have been staying here on these documents handed down from ancient times. Although there are many documents about the eyes of reincarnation, they are basically some bizarre myths and legends, and the legendary founder of the ninja sect. Fairy related.

The age when the Sage of the Six Paths was active was the ancient era thousands of years ago. In that ancient era, not to mention Konoha, even the Kingdom of Fire had not yet been born. The Kingdom of Fire was an aristocratic country that began to form hundreds of years after that, and was passed down from generation to generation. After the Warring States Period, it gradually evolved into the Kingdom of Fire today.

Regarding the events of ancient times, Shikamaru found that although there are many records in Konoha, they basically lack formal historical facts, and most of them are linked to things like religious myths. Moreover, the most troublesome thing for Shikamaru is that even if it is a religious myth, several or even more versions can be derived from one story, making him wonder which literature to refer to is better.

Although some myths and stories can find the shadow of the logic behind them from reality, but after reading all kinds of legends about the Sages of the Six Paths, I realized that the part of finding the eyes of reincarnation is much more difficult than I imagined.

The description of the eyes of reincarnation is basically described as "the eyes of immortals".

Occasionally, some records about a natural disaster monster are mentioned in the story. It is rumored that this monster has ten tails, and was finally beheaded by the sages of the Six Paths, and his body was launched into space, forming the moon that they are familiar with in later generations.

Shikamaru gave a wry smile, the story was really outrageous.

Launching monster corpses into space and then forming the moon or something, the imagination of the ancients is too rich.

If you continue to search like this, even if you look for another hundred years, it may not be realistic to find what you need.

"It's not just the eyes of reincarnation, there doesn't seem to be any clues about the technique called 'Infinite Moon Reading'... If this is not the message left by Mr. Jiraiya, I doubt if the information was given wrong."

Shikamaru put down the documents in his hand, because his brain was overloaded due to reading too much documents, it started to swell and heat up, he needed to take a rest, and then consulted it later.

"Probably not. Although the lecherous fairy is sometimes unreliable, his ability to collect information is very powerful. There will be no mistakes in this kind of place."

Naruto speaks his mind.

"Yes, Master Jiraiya is an excellent intelligence officer, but the things to be investigated are too old. Some information, in the continuous development of history, is either lost or formed into various folk stories. , It's hard to guess the truth behind it.

Shikamaru rubbed the space between his eyebrows, leaned back against the seat, and picked up another file.

"Leaving aside those difficult-to-investigate existences in the Eye of Reincarnation, Akatsuki's investigation went much smoother than expected. This organization began to gain fame during the Third Ninja World War, and it was considered a little famous in the Rain Country at that time. ...And their current leader, Nagato, is called by that name. He is an orphan taken in by Jiraiysama during the Second Ninja World War. If we can know these things earlier, we won't have to worry about it.

Shikamaru was a little helpless about this.

For this Sannin, he really didn't know what to say.

There is indeed a record on Konoha's side. Jiraiya also took in some orphans in the Land of Rain during the Second Ninja World War. It is said that there was a lot of trouble at the time, but it was finally suppressed by the third Hokage... But, no one I don't know that one of these orphans will have such a big background.

But Jiraiya chose to hide this important information from Konoha at the time, so that now Konoha can only deal with such emergencies hastily.

"In short, we need to investigate the matter as soon as possible. The enemy may attack the village at any time. I hope there will be no mistakes this time."

Shikamaru sighed.

The information left by Jiraiya is useful and useful, and there is no specific reference for saying it is useless. Many things are the other party's one-sided words. It is difficult to judge the strength of this leader Akatsuki just by imagining it. Konoha We can only start with the information of the Eye of Reincarnation and see if we can find relevant information. As for the rest of the abilities, such as the gravitational abilities mentioned in the information, I can only warn the ninjas in the village. After encountering each other, the key point is to gather chakra under the feet and lock the body firmly. I hope this method can be used to enhance Some resistance.

However, more specific things need to be concluded through actual combat. But in that case, many Konoha ninjas would probably be sacrificed.

On the other side, Naruto also began to communicate with Minato in his body.

Dad, what do you know about these things?

Even if you say that, I don't necessarily know more than you. Teacher Jiraiya's sacrifice was too sudden, and everyone was caught off guard. In addition, among the three major children's arts, I am more familiar with Sharingan and Baiyan, but I don't know much about Samsarayan.

Minato replied.

Is there really no way?

Naruto asked a little unwillingly.

Hmm...Since reincarnation eyes, white eyes, and sharing sharing eyes are listed as the three major children's arts, I think there should be some important information from the Hyuga clan. This family has a long history and generally has corresponding historical records. If you investigate from there, you may be able to find some clues.

Minato thought for a while to answer.

-is that so?

Yes, generally, blood-successor limit families that form ethnic groups will have detailed records of their own family history. This is probably the unique family honor plot of wealthy families. How about this, you go to the Hyuga Clan to see, and I will see if I can find some information from Nine Tails, since it is related to Tailed Beasts, I think Nine Tails should know something.

After Minato said this, he lost his voice from Naruto's brain and cut off the connection.

"Shikamaru, let's go to Hinata's house and start investigating."

At this time, Naruto suddenly slapped the table with both hands, and looked at him with burning eyes, which startled Shikamaru.

"Hinata?"

Shikamaru blinked, wondering why Naruto had to mention this all of a sudden.

"Yes, that eye of reincarnation is one of the three major children's arts. In this case, the Hinata clan that Hinata belongs to may know something."

"Well, there is indeed such a possibility, so let's go and give it a try."

Shikamaru pondered for a moment, feeling that Naruto's words made sense.

Since Reincarnation Eye, Sharingan Eye, and White Eyes are listed as the three major child skills, there may be some unknown connection between these three types of eyes.

Anyway, the progress of the investigation here is very slow now, if a breakthrough can be found from the Hyuga clan, that would be great.

After tidying up the reference room, Shikamaru took Naruto to the Hyuga Clan, accompanied by several scholars from the Ministry of Intelligence to assist in the investigation.

For Naruto and Shikamaru's visit, Hinata was very happy. Although she wanted to agree to the request of the two of them immediately, but the family matter still needs the approval of her father Hizuru, so Hinata took Naruto He and Shikamaru went to meet his father Hizuru.

As long as the father's consent can be obtained, it is not a problem to investigate the documents of the Hyuga clan.

"Oh, are you investigating information about the Eye of Reincarnation? I've also heard about Mr. Jiraiya, but I didn't expect it to be true."

In the reception room, Nizuru met Naruto and Shikamaru. No matter what, the other party is the friend of his eldest daughter, and their identities are also older than the other. Although they are elders, when they meet, there is no What a shelf.

It's not at all as cold and serious as Hinata usually said, but it's much more cordial than expected.

"Chief Nizuzu, what do you think?"

Shikamaru asked for advice.

"Well, there is nothing wrong with me here, and the Hyuga Clan is also a member of Konoha. At this moment, naturally, I will not be stingy with helping. How about this, let the little girl Hinata lead you to investigate the documents of the Hyuga Clan. .There is a lot of information there, and I don't know if there is anything you need. It would be great if I can help you and Hokage-sama.

Nizuzu readily agreed and asked his eldest daughter Hinata to lead the way for them.

"Yes, my lord father."

Hinata, who knelt down, bowed politely to Hizuru, maintaining the etiquette that the parents of the Hyuga sect should have, then got up and led Shikamaru and Naruto to leave through the side door.

"Uncle Nizuzu is much easier to talk to than expected, so the seriousness on his face is fake."

Walking in the corridor leading to the backyard, Naruto felt it.

"That's not the case, Naruto-kun. My father is just a little tolerant of outsiders, but he is very strict with the people inside the family. He will rigidly require the family members to maintain the etiquette and demeanor that the Hyuga clan should have."

Hinata, who was walking ahead, spoke at this time.

Naruto couldn't understand why he should be tolerant to outsiders but strict with his own people, he couldn't figure out the reason.

But Shikamaru nodded, agreeing with Hinata's words.

Regardless of the Uchiha clan in the past, the Hyuga clan does give people such an impression. No matter how rigid the family's internal rules were, there was really nothing to be picky about when it came to dealing with people.

"Anyway, thank you this time, Hinata. Without you, we wouldn't have gotten here so quickly."

Shikamaru knew that a high-ranking person like Nizuzu would not have so much time to meet outsiders. Even if you can see it, you probably need to make an appointment in advance, but with Hinata's help, you don't need so many cumbersome steps.

"No, there is no such thing, I am very happy to help you. The front is..."

Hinata pointed to the front, and was about to speed up her pace, when a voice suddenly sounded:

"Sister. Is there a visitor at home?"

"Well"

Hearing this familiar voice, Hinata's walking body suddenly froze, forced a smile on his face, and greeted the person who came:

"It's Huahuo, why are you here?"

The visitor is Huahuo.

Beside her was Hyuga Tokuma, the Jonin who was separated from the family.

"I've finished today's homework ahead of schedule, so I'll stop by to see you, sister. Why, aren't you welcome?"

Hanabi started to giggle, as if seeing Hinata's embarrassed look, she felt very amused.

"No, no, it's too late for me to be happy that you can come to see me."

The smile that Hinata squeezed out of Bai Nen's face seemed even more forced.

"Sure enough, sister, you miss me too... Well, it's Shikamaru-senpai, and Naruto-senpai. Good afternoon, both of you."

Hanabi saw Shikamaru and Naruto following behind Hinata, and came over to say hello very familiarly.

Compared to Hinata's shyness, her personality is much more active.

Because she is a younger sister, it is also very reasonable to pay special attention to her sister's usual interpersonal relationships.

"good afternoon."

Shikamaru didn't know much about the second lady of the Hyuga family. She lived in seclusion in the Hyuga clan, and was taught by the family's elite, and did not enter the ninja school.

All I know is that the other party is a genius with outstanding talent, and his talent as a ninja is even better than that of his sister Hinata.

If there is nothing, Shikamaru can feel a dangerous and fierce aura from Hanabi, and his intuition tells him that if he fights with this second lady, he will probably end in defeat.

"Young, good afternoon, Huahuo. I was in a hurry when I came here, and I forgot to bring a gift this time."

Compared to Shikamaru, Naruto is much more familiar with Hanabi.

"Don't worry about this kind of thing. After all, as long as Senior Naruto can come, my sister is already very happy. Isn't it, sister?"

Hanabi touched Hinata's body with her elbow, with a teasing expression on her face.

"Yes, yes."

Hinata knew that at this moment she couldn't offend this little kid's younger sister, otherwise she didn't know how she was going to tease her again, so she could only reluctantly smile to cater to her.

"Okay, Hanabi, Naruto-kun and I still have important things to do next. You've worked **** your cultivation, you'd better go back and rest quickly."

Hinata started to chase people away, telling Hanabi to leave here, not to disturb their work.

"Sister, why are you driving me away in such a hurry? You don't want to have a secret rendezvous with Naruto-senpai here, you can't, as the eldest daughter of the clan, you have to be reserved"

"That's not the case!"

Hinata stared at Hanabi angrily.

"Really? Isn't it a tryst?"

Hanabi blinked, looked at Naruto and Hinata suspiciously, and sniffed the air, as if planning to smell something.

"Of course. I took Shikamaru and Naruto-kun to investigate some things according to the order of my father. I didn't come here for fun."

Hinata Yoshimoto said sternly.

"That's right. Then, count me in. I just happen to be a little bored right now."

Hanabi raised her hand, smiling and intending to join in.

"As long as you don't make trouble."

Hinata didn't really want Hanabi to join in, but considering that after she refused, if the other party made any further noises, it might embarrass her sister again, so she nodded in agreement.

"Thank you, sister, don't worry, I will be very well-behaved."

Looking at the smiling Hanabi, Hinata didn't think that the other party would be so well-behaved, but there was nothing she could do about her younger sister.

Enter the reference room of the Hyuga clan. Although the space here is not as large as Konoha's library, it is also quite large. Moreover, compared with the Konoha Library, the literature and books here have a certain sense of age just from the appearance.

Some documents can even be called antiques. If it is seen by an expert, most likely it can be sold for a sky-high price.

As for such ancient books, I dare not say that they are available everywhere, but it is not a problem to find a hundred or eighty copies.

"By the way, sister, you are here to investigate something."

Hanabi walked in, and asked Tokuma to watch from outside the reference room.

"It's about investigating the reincarnation eye."

Hinata didn't hide anything, and chose to tell Hanabi about it.

"Samsara Eye?" Huahuo turned his head to the side, then looked at a corner of the reference room, and said, "That is an ancient relic from thousands of years ago, so it should be placed over there."

Looking at Huahuo's finger, I did see a corner, where the books and documents are much more age-like than other places.

"Huahuo, do you know?"

"It's okay, occasionally when I'm tired, I'll spend time reading here. After all, I only want to fill my brain with knowledge, instead of just gaining excess fat like you, sister."

"The latter sentence is obviously redundant."

Hinata blushed and clutched her chest, feeling that her mind couldn't be connected with this younger sister.

"That's it. The records about the eyes of reincarnation are mostly related to the fairy in the legend. I remember that in these documents, there is also a story about a monster with ten tails that finally turned into the moon."

Huahuo took out an ancient book with some torn paper, patted it with his hand, and a lot of dust fell off.

"A monster with ten tails?"

Shikamaru is somewhat sensitive to this information.

He also found some similar information in the ancient documents in the Konoha reference room before, but he did not expect that there were similar legends on the Hyuga clan.

"Yeah, it seems to be called 'Ten Tails'. I heard that it was transformed by the goddess Uzuki Kaguya, the mother of the Six Paths Sage. This goddess once wanted to use a technique called 'Infinite Tsukiyomi' to manipulate Humans all over the world, but they were finally stopped by the Sage of the Six Paths and his younger brother."

Ten tails? Sage of the Six Paths mother? Uzuki goddess?

Shikamaru felt that things seemed to be getting more and more outrageous.

"Is this... is it telling a fairy tale?"

Naruto also felt that the things recorded in these ancient books seemed a bit outrageous.

"I'm not sure. After all, more than a thousand years have passed. Even if it is a real thing, some places must have been modified by later generations. According to legend, the ancestors of our Hyuga clan are the descendants of those Uzuki goddesses. In Otsutsuki Yu Village, after the Sage of the Six Paths, Otsuki Yuromo, turned his mother into the moon and launched it into space, our Hyuga ancestors guarded the moon to prevent the goddess from recovering again. I just don't know why the Hyuga clan left the moon and developed on the ground... "

Huahuo talked about it.

"Why didn't I know about this?"

Hinata looked bewildered, why didn't she have any impression of such an important family history?

"Because sister, you only have breasts."

"Don't always talk about things like this!"

Hinata stared angrily at Hanabi.

"Apart from this, there are other materials. If you want to read them all, it may take tomorrow morning..."

While Huahuo was talking, she suddenly became quiet, as if she had sensed something.

The same was true for the three of Naruto, who held their breath and looked at each other without saying a word, and no one spoke first.

boom-

A sudden roar made the ground tremble~www.mtlnovel.com~ The walls of the reference room began to hum and tremble, and a large amount of dust fell from the ceiling. Because the vibration was so violent that the entire reference room was shaken. shaking.

Many books fell from the bookshelves and scattered all over the place.

"What's going on? Is there an earthquake?"

Naruto and the others covered their feet with chakra and fixed them firmly on the ground, so they were not knocked down by the sudden earthquake.

But after the violent shaking lasting more than ten seconds, everyone in the reference room looked at each other in blank dismay, and no one knew what happened.

"Blind eyes!"

Hanabi was the first to open his white eyes, penetrated a large number of buildings, and saw the root cause of the earthquake.

"Someone released a large number of large psychic beasts in the center of the village. The one who summoned them was a young girl. Judging by her clothes, she was a member of the organization called 'Xiao'."

As soon as Hanabi's words came out, the expressions of Shikamaru and Naruto suddenly changed.

Before they had time to think, the two of them left the reference room one after another and rushed towards the center of the village.

At the same time, Tsunade, who was standing at the office window of the Hokage Building, had already seen the buildings in the center of the village emitting heavy dust from a distance, and could see several huge ferocious giant beasts raging madly there. destroy everything there.

The roar and vibration continued, and even the cup on the desk trembled slightly, being affected.

"Master Hokage!"

Lu Jiu ran in, breathing a little short of breath.

Tsunade's performance seemed much calmer, and he began to issue orders to Shikajiu in an orderly manner.

"I've seen it, Lu Jiu, go to evacuate the people according to the original plan, and clear out a place where you can fight. Since the other party dares to attack Konoha, don't let an enemy go."
